I had a problem with my video views getting stuck on my channel which gets annoying after while.

I've done this twice in a one week period. I'm beginning to get really frustrated.

Sometimes a viewcount will get stuck at 300 as that's when Youtube 'checks' the validity of the views. Also if there is an unusual number of views suddenly on a video the count will freeze. If for example someone is trying to artificially inflate their views by constantly refreshing the video (or similar), that will cause the views to freeze.

Try not to worry. This happens a lot to me but it usually always sorts itself out.

It happened to me aswell, my first video was stuck on 623 for about a week then suddenly shot up to 646

YouTube seems to be going through maintenance periods (although not now) where analytics didn't update correctly. At the same time views didn't move for me either; but then they suddenly corrected.

It happened to me before.

Mostly , it happens on videos that have lots of interaction compared to your usual (ex : If you get 500 view usually and you suddenly get 4.000 it will stop and check, sometime for a long time)

Don't worry, that's normal
